Description

:pointr: ________My first Rainmeter Skin________ :pointl:

Personally, I'm not a fan of album art displayed on the desktop.. Its remains the same throughout the whole song.. And I personally do not need to see album art, I already know who the artist is by just hearing the song...

So I chose to replace album art with a set of changing images.. a Slideshow


:bulletblue: Open the INI and set the "ImagePath" under variables to the folder of images you want displayed..
:bulletblue: Alter speed at which Images change by Editing the "ImageDuration" (Lower number = faster change)
:bulletblue: Volume Controls (Left & Right side) are displayed when skin is first loaded. They will become hidden after mouse crosses the controls. This is so you know where your mouse must be place in order for controls to be visible)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember this is my First Rainmeter Skin, so its not going to be perfect, and I'm still working on improving it..

:bulletorange: v0.6 = Fixed song text extending past image
:bulletorange: v1.0 = Reduced CPU usage. (Thanks to jsmorley)
:bulletorange: v1.1 = Added Variable to allow user to control image change time. (Change "ImageDuration" value under variables in .ini)
:bulletorange: v2.0 = Added Volume Controls (thanks to Kaelri for help with Mute function)


+Update: Added Volume Controls (No Controls still available also.)
+Known Issue: None.
